I figured it'd release to the superior platform the PS4, besides the Xbone. I really like what I've seen so far.

This wasn't much of a surprise for me since news of the game leaked Friday or Saturday. Either way, pretty interesting. I'm not going to get too hyped for it since we've only had one really good Tales game out of the last five, but I'm hoping that it follows Berseria's footsteps in going in the right direction for the series.

The initial announcement didn't state it, but the game will have both English and Japanese voice overs and is being helmed by Yusuke Tomizawa who worked on the God Eater series:

That's good, that way if the english voice actors aren't so great one could switch over to the japanese voice actors.
RE: Tales of Arise - Moonface - Jun 10th, 2019
I'm glad it's a choice just because I think every game that has Japanese and English voice overs should offer both options even if both are as good as each other.
RE: Tales of Arise - Dragon Lord - Jun 11th, 2019
Japanese voices isn't anything big. Every Tales game has had JP audio since... I want to say Graces f or the first Xillia. Also you can definitely tell the art style of Arise is inspired by the God Eater games (just look at God Eater 3 and then the screenshots for Arise).
Then again, Bamco seems to be making that their normal art style for these games. God Eater, Code Vein and now ToA all use the same style.

I just realized I have to post this; Tales of "Arise, chicken arise". Ok, I'm happy now. :p

I did not know we had a thread for this game, and I was going to put this somewhere else but there's no need to now. So for those interested, Tales of Arise will have a demo available on all platforms except for PC on August 18. I'm wondering whether to try the demo just to see what a Tales game is like to play.
RE: Tales of Arise - Monocle - Aug 14th, 2021
I'm skipping on the demo. I bought it on PC but obv have my ps4 to play the demo if I wanted but honestly, I've been avoiding gameplay videos. yeah I've seen the OP and had it on repeat for like a week but I want to go in fresh and blind. I'm genuinely hyped af for this game
RE: Tales of Arise - Dragon Lord - Aug 14th, 2021
I'll probably try out the demo. I want to see if the combat is any good or not so I know how high of priority the game will be for me. With how bad the characters look, I'm not fully convinced this is going to be the amazing Tales experience I was hoping it'd be, so I need the combat to sell me on it.
